Description |
English: This painting is a noteworthy example of horse portraiture, a genre within the wider field of sporting art, utilized extensively during the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly in Britain, but not without its practitioners in France and the United States, in fact, in any country in which racing and hunting were significant cultural forms. The most important artist in this field was undoubtedly George Stubbs (1724-1806). The Sartorius family, who consisted of several generations of horse painters worked within precedents which he set, producing a more conservative, less complex oeuvre. Nonetheless, they received royal patronage in their own time and their work has been highly valued ever since. |
